Website design for Auckland / Tāmaki Makaurau
Auckland / Tāmaki Makaurau is home to 1,656,486 people in the 2023 Census. Its businesses operate across distinct towns, communities and sectors, so effective websites need both a clear regional proposition and useful paths into the places customers know.
Auckland at a glance
New Zealand’s largest and most internationally connected urban region, spread across volcanic fields, two harbours, islands and a mosaic of distinct centres. Auckland contains many local markets — the city centre, North Shore, west, south, east, rural north and the Gulf islands — rather than one uniform city economy.
Isthmus between the Waitematā and Manukau harbours, volcanic cones, western ranges, eastern bays, Gulf islands and large peri-urban growth areas.
People, economy and website implications
The country’s most ethnically, linguistically and religiously diverse region. Christian, Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Buddhist, Māori religious and non-religious communities are all significant; these communities shape distinct neighbourhood identities and customer needs.
Head offices, finance, professional services, construction, logistics, manufacturing, screen, technology, tourism, retail, hospitality and a huge small-business economy.
Development context
City centre and waterfront regeneration; Wynyard Quarter; airport and Māngere employment precincts; Manukau; Westgate and northwest growth; Hobsonville; Drury and southern growth. Official project sources provide the latest status.
